A dude died from the X-Games? jeez, no fooling around -- nm - CQ Jan 31, 11:18 14

- From what it sounds like, he had a series of weird things happen - Will Hunting Jan 31, 11:22 2

- EXTREEEEEEME! -- nm - Mop (190 lbs) Jan 31, 11:20 1
  - right? isn't that the point of extreme sports? - groiny Jan 31, 11:21
- although it was a weird one. He walked away from it. -- nm - Reagen Jan 31, 11:20 5
  - I'm with Will Hunting -- some kind of concussion or blood clot thing. -- nm - loosilu Jan 31, 11:23
  - like Liam Neeson's wife. Still, it seems like a "stupid people being stupid tv show" activity to be doing flips with a machine that heavy. -- nm - Max Jan 31, 11:21 2
    - TJ Lavn almost died from doing that shit on a dirt bike IIRC. nm -- nm - groiny Jan 31, 11:24
    - IMO it's suicide. -- nm - loosilu Jan 31, 11:23
  - yeah, crazy stuff. -- nm - CQ Jan 31, 11:20
- bummer. I hadn't heard he died yet -- nm - oblique [220] Jan 31, 11:19 1
  - Reported today. -- (link) - loosilu Jan 31, 11:24
I guess they're figuring he's got to come out of his bunker sometime? -- (link) - znufrii Jan 31, 11:17 3
- I didn't realize that was still going on, this ain't going to end well, that guys seems like a world class ahole with nothing to loose - zeitgeist Jan 31, 11:25
- This is why Doomsday Preppers should not be allowed on TV. -- nm - MDH Jan 31, 11:19 1
  - or at least make watching it disqualify you from owning a gun. -- nm - znufrii Jan 31, 11:21
Hadn't heard this before. This guy mixed the Glee and Coulton version of Baby Got Back on YouTube. Glee on the left speaker, Coulton on the right. -- (link) - Mop (190 lbs) Jan 31, 11:13 [youtube] 8
- the comment that they left in "Johnny C's in trouble" at about 2:15 kinda says it all, doesn't it? -- nm - oblique [220] Jan 31, 11:24
- and all of this over a version that sucks. -- nm - Mel Profit Jan 31, 11:15 3
  - THANK you. That version is just frickin' dumb. -- nm - Jim Jan 31, 11:19 2
    - I saw it on the episode and it rang a bell. I am sure I'd heard it here or on FB. I wasn't impressed then and wasn't impressed later. - Mel Profit Jan 31, 11:22 1
      - The point of it wasn't "hey, this is an amazing song" it was "wouldn't it be weird if balladeers sang about the same things rappers did?" - Reagen Jan 31, 11:25
- I don't think they've denied that they ripped it off, they've simply claimed they were completely within their rights to do so and that Coulton should - znufrii Jan 31, 11:14 2
  - Exposure that they never gave him by saying who they ripped off. - Will Hunting Jan 31, 11:16 1
    - sure. - znufrii Jan 31, 11:25
could not happen to a nicer guy..... -- (link) - groiny Jan 31, 11:13 2

I think that all of my local BestBuy stores were shut down this morning. Nice. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 31, 11:02 1
- what. did. you. do?? -- nm - colin Jan 31, 11:06
Those Deschanel girls, so not hot. They're cute and have nice eyes, but that's about it. They're meh on the hotness scale. -- nm - CQ Jan 31, 10:49 31
- Related to Zooey, this picture always makes me chuckle: -- (link) - MDH Jan 31, 11:09 [Image] 1
  - Blunt, please. -- nm - Reagen Jan 31, 11:27
- I am not an Emily fan, but I do like Zooey alot. nm -- nm - groiny Jan 31, 10:50 28
  - This. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Jan 31, 11:07
  - whoever told her Zooey could sing was incredibly WRONG!! - peglegpete Jan 31, 11:01 1
    - she's pretty good in this one -- (link) - zork Jan 31, 11:05 [youtube]
  - I can understand how she's probably a bit annoying in real life - Reagen Jan 31, 10:57
  - Word. -- nm - Krusty Jan 31, 10:54
  - Have you seen pics without her raccoon eyes? - Spawn Jan 31, 10:51 22
    - I think we can all agree that her hair was awful in Elf. -- nm - Max Jan 31, 11:17 3
      - I can agree, if I got a hold of her, her hair would look worse than that. nm -- nm - groiny Jan 31, 11:18 2
        
        What with the bloody roots and whatnot as she ran screaming for the authorites -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 31, 11:20 1
        
        I left it up to the imagination. nm -- nm - groiny Jan 31, 11:20
    - I agree she is cute. She's naturally pretty and knows what works for her (hair and makeup). -- nm - loosilu Jan 31, 11:01
    - I do not know what you are referring to. nm -- nm - groiny Jan 31, 10:52 16
      - Here. -- (link) - Spawn Jan 31, 10:53 [Image] 15
        
        Possibly hotter. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Jan 31, 11:08
        
        Counterpoint. -- (link) - Ender Jan 31, 11:08 [Image] 7
        
        that's not hot -- nm - CQ Jan 31, 11:16
        
        what eyes? -- nm - oblique [220] Jan 31, 11:10 1
        
        Exactly. -- nm - Ender Jan 31, 11:12
        
        Actually, not. The raccoon eyes are not as intense as usual, but part way there. -- nm - Spawn Jan 31, 11:09 3
        
        if a raccoon looked like that, I would fuck it too. nm -- nm - groiny Jan 31, 11:10 2
        
        there's this -- nm - CQ Jan 31, 11:15
        
        Bery, you can delete all the STPOW lines at the top of the page. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Jan 31, 11:14

        Zooey is still hot. Love her! -- nm - Krusty Jan 31, 10:54 4
        
        "Cute", at best. -- nm - Spawn Jan 31, 11:01 3
        
        why would anyone expect something else? most woman look somewhat similar to that without any eyeliner? -- nm - zork Jan 31, 11:02 2
        
        We're arguing famous person hot here...cute barely moves the needle. -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 31, 11:19 1
        
        but famous people without makeup are regular looking people - zork Jan 31, 11:27
Face-Off talk...(spoilers) - Mel Profit Jan 31, 10:47 5
- all in all, this has been the worst talent level in any season so far. - groiny Jan 31, 10:49 4
  - I don't disagree that if some of them don't step up it'll be the worst level of quality... - Mel Profit Jan 31, 10:54 3
    - I cut them slack in Superhero week, but demon week should have rocked. - groiny Jan 31, 10:56
    - I feel like this season they've been worse than past years, but also more ambitious. -- nm - Ender Jan 31, 10:55 1
      - which is ashame given that they clearly have a hit show in their hands, are putting more production into it but the contestants aren't measuring up. -- nm - Mel Profit Jan 31, 10:57

I'm sorta regretting my decision to not marry Elisha Cuthbert - prayformojo Jan 31, 10:39 10
- Sarah Jones is my girl -- nm - peglegpete Jan 31, 10:45
- Emily VanCamp is my forever girlfriend. As a fellow Canadian, I had the opportunity before she left the nation. - Mop (190 lbs) Jan 31, 10:43
- it seems like she's been rediscovered at amazingly hot like 4 times. -- nm - Reagen Jan 31, 10:43 2
  - her character reveal in the Girl Next Door is one of the best all time "BAM" moments. - groiny Jan 31, 10:44 1
    - word -- nm - Spawn Jan 31, 10:45
- [deleted] 1
  - She could slush my fund anytime. -- nm - Ender Jan 31, 10:45
- Would you let her handle all the finances? -- nm - nubby, Astro-lord Jan 31, 10:40 2
  - "What was your endgame? You knew the couch was rigged." -- nm - Max Jan 31, 10:42

Facebook introduces the "Facebook Gift Card" that works at Jamba Juice, Olive Garden, Sephora, and Target all on one card -- (link) - oblique [220] Jan 31, 10:38 10
- impressive. they came up with four places i would never shop/eat at ever -- nm - charlie Jan 31, 10:43 3
  - sounds like they are marketing to young working women -- nm - zeitgeist Jan 31, 11:04
  - You don't shop at Sephora? -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Jan 31, 10:49 1
    - what have you heard? -- nm - charlie Jan 31, 11:03
- Yeah, but each location has a separate balance. A plain Visa or Mastercard gift card is still better. -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Jan 31, 10:41 5
  - you know that most of the visa or mastercard gift cards charge $2-$3 service fee per use? - Andie Jan 31, 10:42 4
    - and the reloadable ones charge fees (probably about $7+) each month to be active. Some have reload fees too. -- nm - zork Jan 31, 11:00
    - I think the ones I saw here charge a $5 activation fee, but no other fees. Which is still very lame, but FB's idea isn't all that impressive either. -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Jan 31, 10:48
    - Exactly. And most merchants can't run them down to $0, it's a card flaw. They're terrible. -- nm - MDH Jan 31, 10:48
    - I don't get who those are for. -- nm - Reagen Jan 31, 10:44
Ranking Cece lower than Jess? Madness! -- nm - Mop (190 lbs) Jan 31, 10:36 2
- who did that? Jess was kinda cute in her bra for the entire last episode but this is *Cece* we're talking about. - Diva Jan 31, 10:38 1
  - the first few eps, I did not think much of her, but then, all of a sudden.... - groiny Jan 31, 10:40
Mop, if it's any consolation, I'm in the same boat. (Although I get a paystub every week, so I know what we make.) - JaxSean Jan 31, 10:33
I owe mel $40. -- nm - Diva Jan 31, 10:33 6
- we'll work on a payment plan. -- nm - Mel Profit Jan 31, 10:35 3
  - *seethes* -- nm - Diva Jan 31, 10:36 2
    - *sings the Aunt Audrey theme* -- nm - Mel Profit Jan 31, 10:37 1
      - L3 -- nm - Diva Jan 31, 10:38
- read the comments? -- nm - loosilu Jan 31, 10:33 1
  - tee-hee! -- nm - Diva Jan 31, 10:34

Mount Saint Joseph High School Principal, Barry Fitzpatrick, resigns because of inappropriate communications with students. - Inigo Jan 31, 10:31 2
- Now you can call your brother and say "Told you so." -- nm - Mop (190 lbs) Jan 31, 10:44
- Did he... uh... email your brother? -- nm - Spawn Jan 31, 10:32
NUTHIN'! *grabs what looks to be an old ledger and runs off* -- nm - tim mie Jan 31, 10:29 2
- *laughing* -- nm - Diva Jan 31, 10:30 1
  - that'll be some creative accounting. - Mel Profit Jan 31, 10:31
lots of prople don't tip. it takes being a special attitude to make a point of it. -- nm - Reagen Jan 31, 10:28 9
- The other lesson should be "pay your employees more than $3.50 an hour so they don't complain about low tippers" -- nm - Roger More Jan 31, 10:35 1
  - They have no reason to do that as long as it's legal not to. -- nm - mara Jan 31, 10:40
- oh, is the applebees thing on B2 about the tithing 10% receipt? -- nm - Beryllium Jan 31, 10:31 1
  - yep, and the "pastor" runs her own church with a congregation of 15 people, so the 10% tithe just goes back to herself -- nm - ceregon Jan 31, 10:34
- and Title Dropping too... -- nm - tim mie Jan 31, 10:30 3
  - run along now... -- nm - Mel Profit Jan 31, 10:30 2
    - NAME DROPPER! -- nm - Beryllium Jan 31, 10:31 1
      - you have no idea... -- nm - Mel Profit Jan 31, 10:32
- and to bring "you're not as great as God" into it -- nm - charlie Jan 31, 10:30
we're always talking about the cool things GOOGLE does with its' banner ... but BING has a pretty cool thing going on today -- nm - i'm not dead yet ! Jan 31, 10:28 2
- i think we have different ideas of what is cool -- nm - charlie Jan 31, 10:29 1
  - Well, if you think it's lukewarm or hot, you're welcome to jump in. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 31, 10:30
oh god, there's a form - charlie Jan 31, 10:28 4
- Ask someone to help you read the big words. - Spawn Jan 31, 10:33 3
  - i can fill out one with your name just as easily once i've done it the first time - charlie Jan 31, 10:42 2
    - I've got your withholdings right here. -- nm - Spawn Jan 31, 10:44 1
      - tell it to Irwin R. Shyster - charlie Jan 31, 10:45
I'm through 70 pieces of graveblossom in the sand crypt and have yet to get one single luneria petal. I'm seeing if whining on ST will work -- nm - CQ Jan 31, 10:27 2
- [deleted]
- I hope so. That place can be brutal. -- nm - TWuG Jan 31, 10:28
LIR: slush fund. No -- nm - oblique [220] Jan 31, 10:25 6
- cash business.... -- nm - zeitgeist Jan 31, 11:28
- Not really. I started to squirrel away a few bucks over the last few weeks to get my gf a birthday present. - Krusty Jan 31, 10:31 1
  - But normally we live paycheck to paycheck. -- nm - Krusty Jan 31, 10:31
- Closest I have is my PayPal account which is used for buying and selling cards. - Jim Jan 31, 10:28 1
  - Like you really need 50k for that. - Spawn Jan 31, 10:31
- I can't hold on to money well enough to even consider that :/ heheh -- nm - Beryllium Jan 31, 10:27
